The same strong delegations will return for the next round. The US team includes Vice President JD Vance, special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Iran will send Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

Pakistan’s Role Keeps Door Open for Peace
Shehbaz Sharif, the Prime Minister of Pakistan, is insisting again and again that the country is going to make efforts at all costs to overcome the pending differences. The war, which began on February 28th by strikes on Iran from the United States and Israel, resulted in losses for both sides before ceasefire could be established. In such a situation, there is new hope now that the forthcoming meeting will prove fruitful.
